This is one of a series of interviews completed by the Milton Historical Society (http://miltonhistoricalsociety.ca) as part of the production of the book "Milton Remembers WWII 1939-1945". Several veterans of Milton and the surrounding community were interviewed by MHS staff to document their experiences in Milton, their service to Canada in WWII and the impact that this had on their life. This is the interview of Rodney Ramsden (a British not Canadian soldier) who moved to Milton in 1990 to be with his eldest son. Rodney tells quite the story of his time in England and France with an Anti-Aircraft Battery, followed by his landings in France and onward to North Africa. This interview was conducted by Ken Lamb on October 26, 1994.
